WILLISTON, N.D. - Today Williston State College announced the launch of a new career resource. The resource is a called "Occupational Opportunities", a website intended to help automate numerous functions found within the job-searching process.

As a result, students and employers not only have 24/7 access to a plethora of career resources, but access to each other like they have never had before.

This website brings our student direct access to job opportunities so we're very excited about the launch of this new resource," said Coordinator of Career Pathways, Katie Peterson. "By implementing this new system we will continue to enhance our services related to full-time employment, internships/cooperative education, student employment, volunteer service learning, federal work-study, alumni employment and more."
